00:00The World Wrestling Federation, for over 50 years,
00:04the revolutionary force in sports entertainment.
00:09Many call the Heartbreak Kid Shawn Michaels the most flamboyant
00:14superstar to ever grace a World Wrestling Federation ring.
00:19With the heart of a lion and the determination of a champion,
00:24the resiliency of Michaels has once again put him back on top of the WWF.
00:30But last week on Monday Night Raw,
00:32something happened that may jeopardize the future of the Intercontinental Champion.
00:36At the hands of the unruly King Mabel, Michaels suffered a costly injury.
00:41An injury that may indeed put his gold at risk at SummerSlam.
00:45Tonight on Monday Night Raw, can Shawn Michaels recover from his injuries in
00:50time to survive the challenge by yet another self-proclaimed member of royalty?
00:55Tonight, Shawn Michaels, the Heartbreak Kid, faces the cagey,
01:00the crafty, the ring veteran, Jerry, the King Lawler.
01:04Shawn Michaels, you're gonna have these people thinking you're Superman.
01:09After what happened last week here on Raw, I'm surprised that you're back.
01:14But I know you're a resilient man.
01:16You can take a licking and keep on ticking.
01:19But I also know the truth.
01:21You may be only one well-aimed blow away from the end of your career.
01:27What King Mabel started last week, King Lawler is gonna finish tonight.
01:32Welcome everybody,
01:37welcome to Western
01:41Championship
01:47RAW.
01:50Welcome, everybody.
02:00Welcome to Worcester, Massachusetts.
02:04Welcome to the Worcester Memorial Auditorium.
02:07Welcome to Monday Night Raw.
02:13No, we are loud, yes, we're all rowdy bunchy, we all rockers here tonight.
02:18Hey, everyone, I'm Vince McMahon, we're on with the Million Dollar Man,
02:21Ted DiBiase, stepping in to fill in the shoes of Jerry The King Lawler,
02:25who will be in this ring in action against Shawn Michaels.
02:28Let's talk about that match tonight, Invisible Man.
02:31I just left Sid back in the back, he is livid, he is beside himself, and
02:35I will not be held responsible for what he might do if he decides to interject
02:39himself on that match tonight.
02:41You know and everybody knows he was ripped off.
02:43He should have had the Intercontinental title match against Shawn Michaels.
02:47But thanks to our new president, Gorilla Monsoon, that's not happening.
02:50I'm not responsible.
02:52I don't think this crowd would agree with you.
02:54But right now, here comes some fun and some games.
02:57Here comes Dirk The Clown.
03:00This contest is scheduled for one fall.
03:05Introducing first, weighing in at 243 pounds, Dirk The Clown.
03:09Yes, he is the Prince of Pranks, Dirk The Clown.
03:14However, you have to wonder what's gonna happen when Waylon Mercy,
03:17ladies and gentlemen, steps into the squared circle.
03:20Waylon Mercy against Dirk The Clown to kick things off tonight live
03:24on Monday Night Raw.
03:27Hey, pal, how you doing?
03:28All right.
03:30Stay away from me.
03:31I like that hair.
03:33Nice green tint.
03:35I don't think he's very funny, never have.
03:37And Nicole Smith's favorite WWF superstar, there he is.
03:41Yeah, Dirk The Clown.
03:44Waylon Mercy on the other hand, man, is my kind of man.
03:47Yeah, I would suggest so.
03:48Lives are gonna be in Waylon Mercy's hands.
03:53And take a look if you wouldn't, this con man.
03:56Con man?
03:57Yeah, exactly, a con man.
03:59From Griffin, Georgia, weighing 290 pounds.
04:01Waylon Mercy.
04:02I don't believe he's been beaten.
04:03Waylon's better as Mercy.
04:04Who shows no mercy on his opponents whatsoever.
04:08That's exactly why I like him.
04:09Ted DiBiase making reference to Psycho Sid a little bit earlier on.
04:15Wait a minute, wait a minute.
04:16I take offense if you're calling him Psycho.
04:19All right, listening to Ted DiBiase speak of just playing Sid, I'm Psycho Sid.
04:28I'm telling you, man, he is beside himself.
04:30I've never seen him like this.
04:32This is one time I might agree with you, he is a little bit psycho.
04:36And Waylon Mercy, wait a minute, he's trying to shake Doink's hand now.
04:41Those of you who have seen Waylon Mercy in action
04:45know that he does not mean a friendly handshake.
04:51And I can't believe Doink is gonna fall.
04:53No, taxi, take a taxi, there you go.
04:55Uh-oh, Waylon Mercy, arm drag.
04:58Mercy up again, down again.
05:00And Doink the Clown, ladies and gentlemen,
05:01despite that extraordinary look, a very accomplished wrestler.
05:05And Waylon Mercy knows what Doink the Clown means.
05:09Doink means action here tonight, live on Monday Night Raw.
05:14Waylon's just taking his time, McMahon.
05:17Well, by the way, in action here tonight as well will be one hog farmer by
05:21the name of Henry O'Godwin.
05:23And I might add another member of the Million Dollar Corporation, Mr. DiBiase.
05:26Wait a minute, man, he is not a member of the corporation.
05:30Henry Godwin, wait a minute, look at that.
05:33And Waylon Mercy is getting angry and Doink's having a few,
05:36look at the look on that man's face, my.
05:38Henry Godwin is not a member of the corporation?
05:40I repeat, McMahon,
05:41there's no way that Henry Godwin would be a member of my corporation.
05:45Wait, give me a break.
05:46Wait a minute, Henry Godwin has done a number of services for you, has he not?
05:49Look at that maneuver.
05:51Well, of course, I hired him.
05:52He hired a dirty man to do a dirty job, and I hired him.
05:55As a matter of fact, he came rather cheap, I might add.
05:58Henry Godwin, hog farmer from Arkansas in action, and
06:01I would suggest that Henry Godwin is gonna be a little upset, perhaps,
06:04over these remarks you're making, Ted DiBiase.
06:07No, no, no.
06:08Look at him, holding the rope now for Doink the Clown, and look.
06:10I believe in hiring cheap labor, and he was pretty cheap, a little BLT breath.
06:16Nonetheless, Henry Godwin has done a number of favors for you, and
06:20quite an accomplished wrestler in his own right.
06:23Doink the Clown now going to work on Waylon Mercy.
06:25And Doink, Waylon Mercy going into midsection here.
06:31Feet, hands, everything.
06:33The official trying to get Doink the Clown to back off a bit.
06:36Now, Waylon Mercy, there is a possible- With a left hand.
06:40Like I said.
06:40And a clothesline, a vicious clothesline at that.
06:46Waylon Mercy pouring it on here.
06:50Waylon Mercy against Doink the Clown.
06:54Now, that's really absurd, McMahon.
06:56I can't believe that you would even suggest that Henry Godwin would be a member
07:00of my corporation.
07:01I mean, have you got a whiff of him lately?
07:03Wow.
07:04Look at this.
07:05Waylon Mercy, ladies and gentlemen, the sleeper,
07:09hold on tight, the Clown, and the look on Waylon Mercy's face pretty much
07:15tells you the entire story.
07:17Take a look at that chisel.
07:20And Waylon Mercy just might be someone high on the list
07:25of acquisition as far as Ted DiBiase is concerned.
07:29Waylon Mercy with a sleeper hold on Doink the Clown and
07:34Doink is gonna go nighty-night.
07:38Waylon Mercy with a sleeper hold on Doink the Clown and
07:43Doink is gonna go nighty-night.
07:46And the official finally giving the signal to ring the bell.
07:49He never looks better.
07:50Lives are gonna fade.
07:52The winner of the match by submission, Waylon Mercy.
07:55One more time, he's undefeated.
07:57Yes, indeed, he gets to do it.
07:59And yet to come, ladies and gentlemen,
08:01hot farmer Henry Godwin along with the smoking guns who will be in action.
08:05We'll visit Dean Douglas as well.
08:08Hunter Hearst Hemsley will be in action.
08:10And of course, the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion,
08:14Hunter Hearst Hemsley will be in action.
08:16And of course, the big one indeed, it's Shawn Michaels one-on-one against
08:21Terry The King Lawler.
08:23However, on his way, this might be someone you would be interested in.
08:27Take a look, if you would, Ted DiBiase at Gold Dust.
08:32Wow, beautiful.
08:38Hollywood, land of the stars,
08:43the home place of the rich and the famous.
08:50A corner of the world in Southern California where dreams are made and
08:56lives are shattered.
08:59Many people have come into this magical town and
09:03made quite a name for themselves.
09:06You got Dean, and you got Bogart, and you're Kang, you're Peck,
09:13you're Cobra, my favorite Marilyn Monroe.
09:20The Tinseltown roll call goes on and on and on.
09:26However, there is a difference between these stars and the legend.
09:39Of Gold Dust, you see these cellular gods and goddesses were fabricated.
09:46They were cloned into stardom by teams of writers, producers, and directors.
09:56They learned their craft.
10:00They spent many summer days enacting 101.
10:03That's the difference, and that is the difference.
10:07Look into my eyes.
10:10That is the difference between them and me.
10:21You see, I was born a star.
10:23It was a gift from that great one in the sky.
10:26No editing, just pure talent.
10:30Superstars of the World Wrestling Federation.
10:37Gold Dust comes up to the scene.
10:44You're going to realize quickly you're not a Kansas any longer.
10:50When I defeat your Diesel Champion and they put more gold around my waist,
10:55I'm going to invite you to be my personal guest at the biggest Hollywood premiere of your life.
11:04Oscar, step aside, Gold Dust.
11:09I'm talking hot.
11:11Let's enter the building.
11:14Well, I think that might be someone you'd be interested in.
11:16What about it?
11:17I'll tell you what.
11:18Unlike old Bacon Breath, Henry Godwin, there's a man with some class.
11:21I mean, just think of it.
11:23Gold Dust, it even sounds like a million-dollar man.
11:26Wait a minute.
11:27Henry Godwin on his way to the ring right now, ladies and gentlemen.
11:30And he's not scheduled to compete until a little bit later on.
11:34Henry, come on down, Henry.
11:37Henry looks like he's ready to go.
11:40Come on down, Henry.
11:42Henry looks like he's-
11:44Wait a minute.
11:46Henry Godwin-
11:47Are you talking about me, boy?
11:48No, wait a minute, Henry.
11:49What'd you say, boy?
11:50Don't overreact now.
11:52What'd you say?
11:53Don't, don't, don't, don't.
11:56Don't overreact.
12:07Why don't we go back here?
12:09Why don't we go back here and find somebody to work with?
12:18You get on your knees right now!
12:21You get on your knees right now!
12:24You get on your knees right now!
12:37Now I want you to squeal like a pig, boy!
12:41You squeal like a pig, boy!
12:44You squeal like a pig!
12:49Oh, no!
12:54Unbelievable!
12:57Ted DiBiase!
13:00Look at this!
13:02I've heard of being slammed before!
13:04I've never heard of being slammed!
13:07Welcome back, everyone, to Monday Night Raw.
13:09Now, take a look.
13:10Ted DiBiase with a smile on his face that will quickly change
13:13because, yes, the big, hot farmer from Arkansas
13:15heard everything that he said,
13:17heard every disparaging remark.
13:18And, look, he says,
13:19No, please, don't slap me.
13:21Don't throw that down.
13:22And then the hard farmer went ahead and did it!
13:24Look at that!
13:26Ted DiBiase!
13:27Can't believe it!
13:29And another look at it now!
13:31The hard farmer from Arkansas, Henry Godwin,
13:33had heard enough.
13:34Oh!
13:36Look at that!
13:38Unbelievable!
13:40Anything can happen on Monday Night Raw,
13:43and that just proves it.
13:45Yes, we're back and ready for more action,
13:47ladies and gentlemen.
13:48And there's a look at the slap.
13:50And speaking of slap, well, no.
13:52No, here's my partner right here, ladies and gentlemen,
13:54on WWF Superstars, Doc Hendricks,
13:56who's jumped out here,
13:57and I guess Ted DiBiase's a little busy
13:59getting his suit cleaned.
14:00Very much so.
14:01Johnny on the spot.
14:02You know, when I was a Boy Scout,
14:03I was the best of my troop,
14:04and that motto always beat up.
14:06Well, I could never remember that motto,
14:08but I'll tell you,
14:09somebody's got to remember something.
14:10It's got to be Shawn Michaels.
14:11Psycho Sin.
14:12He's redlined.
14:13He's back now.
14:14He's going nuts.
14:15He's going to have a chance.
14:16The lights are on.
14:17No one's home.
14:18Something's going to happen.
14:19He's going to have to bring these rollers
14:20into high school.
14:24All right, ladies and gentlemen.
14:26The Smoking Gun.
14:27According to Doc Hendricks,
14:28Psycho Sin is rewired.
14:30Well, right now,
14:32we've got one of the great tag team combinations.
14:34Yeah, one of the ladies' favorites
14:36coming into action.
14:37These two, the Smoking Guns,
14:39have been just out of the blaze.
14:40They've been smoking.
14:43You know, I've got a mixed complaint.
14:45Let me back.
14:46At SummerSlam,
14:47the Smoking Guns against the Blue Twins.
14:51I beg your pardon?
14:52I said the Smoking Guns,
14:54follow me slowly,
14:55against the Blue Twins.
14:57Yes, indeed.
14:58What a matchup that's going to be at SummerSlam.
15:01Billy and Bart,
15:02the Smoking Guns,
15:03former WWF Tag Team Champions.
15:05I thought it was Bob and Ben.
15:07No, it's Billy and Bart.
15:09Okay.
15:10And I must say,
15:11ladies and gentlemen,
15:12that right in front of our announce position
15:14is that swap,
15:16which, well,
15:17any of it.
15:18A little bit more on that later on.
15:20Reversal,
15:21and Bill Garrett in there,
15:22trying his luck with Bart.
15:24Bart and Billy,
15:26a tenacious tag team combination
15:28if there ever was one here
15:29in the history of the World Wrestling Federation.
15:31Bart now,
15:32over Garrett,
15:33from the other side,
15:34over the hip nose,
15:35nice reversal,
15:36and down he goes.
15:38And Garrett lays a ton.
15:40And a dropkick by Bart.
15:44The Smoking Guns
15:46would very much like to be
15:47WWF Tag Team Champions
15:49once again,
15:50given the opportunity.
15:51Here comes Billy.
15:54Billy and Bart.
15:56Let's see,
15:57I would imagine
15:58a number of quick tags.
15:59Right out of tag team coordination,
16:01possessed by the Smoking Guns.
16:02Yes, and that's exactly
16:03that tag team coordination
16:04that took them to the top
16:05of the WWF tag team scene,
16:07you know,
16:08some months ago,
16:09back in January.
16:10Cody Wade coming in now,
16:11he's going to try his luck
16:12against Billy.
16:17Any number of things
16:18can happen.
16:19It already happened here
16:20tonight on Monday Night Raw.
16:23I'm telling you,
16:24you should have seen
16:25Psycho Sid back in the dressing room.
16:26Matter of fact,
16:27no you shouldn't have.
16:28You're better off out here.
16:29Bart now,
16:30back in there.
16:31Bart against Cody Wade.
16:33Sets up for the ride.
16:36Wait a minute,
16:37take a look at this.
16:39From the top.
16:40Wow!
16:41What a maneuver by Billy again.
16:43A cover, a tap,
16:44and a victory.
16:45Wow!
16:49The Smoking Guns!
16:51The Smoking Guns!
16:58Billy and Bart
16:59continue their winning ways.
17:00On the way now
17:01to SummerSlam
17:02to see if they can do the same
17:03against
17:04the tag team
17:05combination of twins,
17:08the Blue Dwarfs.
17:09Standing by right now
17:10ladies and gentlemen
17:11with the
17:12cross blue critique
17:13is The Dean.
17:14I believe he's going to
17:15critique the Hitman
17:16Bret Hart.
17:34Now then,
17:37definition for today's lesson.
17:49Execution.
17:52The act
17:54or process
17:55of executing
17:57a performance
17:59of a performance
18:01of a performance
18:02of a performance
18:04the act
18:05or mode
18:07or result
18:09of one's performance.
18:14So that definition
18:16brings us to one
18:17World Wrestling Federation
18:19superstar,
18:21Mr. Hart.
18:23The Hitman.
18:26The self-professed
18:29excellence
18:30of execution.
18:33Witness if you will.
18:38Mr. Hart
18:39has climbed the ropes
18:43while his opponent
18:46is lying helpless
18:47on the mat.
18:50Mr. Hart,
18:51that is not an act
18:53of excellence
18:55indeed.
18:57It's an act
18:59of cowardice.
19:03If we continue.
19:10Mr. Hart,
19:12the Hitman,
19:14the self-professed
19:16excellence
19:17of execution
19:19makes a major
19:20elementary mistake.
19:23He fails
19:25to grapevine
19:26either
19:28of his opponent's legs
19:29of his opponent's legs.
19:34Excellence,
19:35I think not.
19:37And then from there
19:40the Hitman
19:42goes face to face
19:45in argument
19:46with a World Wrestling Federation
19:48official.
19:51Mr. Hart,
19:53that is hardly
19:55the excellence
19:57of execution.
19:58No.
20:00Upon
20:01close
20:02review and critique
20:04in my classroom
20:06Dean Douglas
20:08is forced to give a grade.
20:11And the grade that I give is
20:21an F.
20:23No, Mr. Hart.
20:25The excellence of execution
20:26I think not.
20:28How about
20:30the foundation
20:32of failure?
20:36So class,
20:41until next week
20:46you're dismissed.
20:57That is the most
20:58gyrating sound.
21:00Accompany that
21:01plus the slop.
21:02Who knows what else
21:03is gonna happen here tonight.
21:04Shawn Michaels
21:05is gonna be with us.
21:06As a matter of fact,
21:07Shawn Michaels, I believe,
21:08is standing by.
21:09Shawn, can you hear us?
21:10Yes, I can hear you
21:11Mickey Mannequin.
21:12Aha.

21:16How the ribs doing?
21:17Have you recovered
21:18from last week?
21:19Well, you know,
21:21I heard Jerry Lawler
21:23asking and saying
21:24how the Heartbreak Kid
21:25should be concerned
21:26with how he's feeling.
21:27Kingfish,
21:28you shouldn't be concerned
21:29with me
21:30and how I'm feeling.
21:31He should be more concerned
21:32with you
21:33and how you're
21:34gonna be feeling.
21:36Between
21:37Humpty Dumpty last week
21:39and the Burger King
21:40this week,
21:42boys,

22:37against Native American
22:38Tatanka next week.
22:40I like both those guys.
22:41That's gonna be
22:42one fantastic match-up.
22:44Man, when them lights
22:45come down
22:46and then that heat
22:47gets real cool in here.
22:48Oh boy, does it ever.
22:49I like this guy.
22:50Hunter Hearst Tumsley
22:51in American blue gloves.
22:53Hailing from
22:54Greenwich, Connecticut.
22:56I think maybe Hunter
22:57has been smelling
22:58some of the slop
22:59that's been cleaned up
23:00as his nose up in the air
23:01for some reason.
23:02I tell you,
23:03if he was this close to it,
23:04he'd really walk away from it.
23:05Look at the polite applause,
23:06ladies, of course.
23:08By the way,
23:09ladies and gentlemen,
23:10Thursday,
23:11he's a heck of a cop
23:12and with one hell of a mom,
23:13Sylvester Stallone
23:14and Estelle Getty
23:15taking him at LA
23:17in Stomper.
23:18My mom will shoot
23:19the USA movie
23:20Thursday night
23:21at 9,
23:228 central.
23:24And here we go
23:25with Hunter Hearst Tumsley.
23:26Hunter against Jeff Hardy
23:28and take a look at
23:29a back takedown
23:30but look at the outfit
23:32on Hardy.
23:34Hello, Doc,
23:35are you there?
23:36Yeah, I'm just-
23:37Are you mesmerized
23:38by that outfit?
23:39No, I was wondering
23:40if he's, you know,
23:41a throwback to the old
23:42Partridge family days
23:43or what?
23:44I don't know.
23:45Earlier on,
23:46maybe someone
23:47I don't have to go there,
23:48I guess.
23:49No, you don't.
23:50Hunter Hearst Tumsley
23:51thus far undefeated
23:52here in the World Wrestling
23:53Federation.
23:54A tenacious competitor
23:55and a man,
23:56unquestionably,
23:57who has a-
23:58Oh, yes!
23:59A great deal
24:00of scientific
24:01knowledge
24:02that he will display
24:03from time to time
24:04but he can mix it up
24:05almost in any fashion.
24:07Hardy.
24:08Nice maneuver.
24:09Dropkick and Hunter Hearst
24:10Tumsley get a buckle
24:11and Hunter Hearst Tumsley
24:13on the receiving end
24:14of a right hand.
24:15A succession of them now
24:16and Hunter for the ride.
24:17No.
24:18How about that maneuver?
24:19Nicely done by Hardy.
24:20Look at this.
24:21He called a high-risk
24:22maneuver in.
24:23Nobody there.
24:24Uh-oh.
24:25He's gonna be in trouble now.
24:28Hunter Hearst Tumsley.
24:29Oh, my goodness!
24:30With a kick
24:31to the abdominal area.
24:33Is Helmsley your neighbor
24:34there in Greenwich?
24:36Definitely not, Hunter.
24:38Hunter Hearst Tumsley
24:39pouring it on.
24:41Look at him.
24:42He's switching gears.
24:43Yes, which he has
24:44been known to do.
24:45Into overdrive.
24:47And by speaking of overdrive,
24:48speaking of being online.
24:50We were speaking of it,
24:51weren't we?
24:52Well, I guess so.
24:53America Online,
24:54ladies and gentlemen.
24:55Yes, there's a number
24:561-800-916-9966.
24:57If you have a computer,
24:58that's the number
24:59you want to dial
25:00to be online
25:01because next week
25:02right after Raw,
25:04guess what?
25:05Yours truly is gonna be online.
25:07New.
25:08Looking forward to it.
25:09Speaking of online,
25:10that elbow just caught
25:11Jeff Hardy
25:12right online on Target.
25:16And Hunter Hearst
25:17Helmsley would think,
25:18oh, no, wait a minute.
25:19Here he comes
25:20to pedigree.
25:22And time.
25:23Yes, sirree, Bob.
25:25Shoots to half.
25:26Hooks the leg.
25:27The cover.
25:28The count.
25:29The victory.
25:30Bob Holly at SummerSlam.
25:31I hope you're paying
25:32attention.
25:33I hope you have

25:35Hunter Hearst Helmsley.
25:37Hunter Hearst Helmsley
25:38on his way to SummerSlam.
25:41And approximately
25:42two weeks,
25:43Hunter Hearst Helmsley
25:44with a lockup
25:45would be a speedster.
25:47Bob Holly.
25:48Standing by right now,
25:49Todd Pettengill
25:50with our SummerSlam
25:51Insider.
25:54Super-sized
25:55Stride-X pads
25:56present
25:57WWE SummerSlam
25:58Insider.
25:59Bigger is better.
26:02Bigger is better.
26:03And Hunter Hearst Helmsley
26:04has got the biggest
26:05attitude in Connecticut.
26:07And that's big.
26:08However,
26:09not as big as
26:10SummerSlam from
26:11Stride-X and the
26:12World Wrestling Federation.
26:13I'm Todd Pettengill
26:14counting down the days
26:15to August 27th
26:16when we hit the
26:17Igloo in Pittsburgh
26:187 o'clock Eastern
26:194 Pacific
26:20totally live
26:21on pay-per-view.
26:23We'll see the
26:24WWF Champion
26:25Big Daddy Cool Diesel
26:26defend the title
26:27against the
26:28568-pound
26:29Royal
26:30King Mabel.
26:31Of course,
26:32last week here on RAW
26:33we saw Diesel defeat
26:34Moe with the
26:35patented jackknife.
26:36But then of course
26:37Mabel came on
26:38and attacked
26:39Big Daddy.
26:40Then Shawn Michaels
26:41came to Diesel's defense
26:42and he paid the
26:43price for that.
26:44And if there's one
26:45thing that ticks off
26:46Diesel,
26:47it's people
26:48messing with his
26:49friends.
26:50We're going to hear
26:51from Big Daddy next
26:52week here on
26:53Monday Night RAW.
26:54Oh, and speaking of
26:55Shawn Michaels,
26:56he'll be defending
26:57the Intercontinental
26:58title at SummerSlam
26:59when he squares off
27:00against the bad guy
27:01Razor Ramon
27:02in an extremely
27:03physically demanding
27:04ladder match.
27:05Let's hope that
27:06Shawn is fully
27:07recovered from the
27:08injuries he suffered
27:09here last week
27:10at the hands of
27:11Big Daddy.
27:12We'll be right back
27:13with more from
27:14Big Daddy,
27:15when Psycho Sid
27:16faces the Burger King
27:17Jerry Lawler
27:18live here tonight
27:19on RAW.
27:20All right, let me
27:21jump back to the
27:22insider, because
27:23sources tell me
27:24that Isaac Yankum
27:25DDS is preparing
27:26his Novocain in
27:27preparation for his
27:28appointment with
27:29Brett the Hitman
27:30Hart.
27:31That's right.
27:32The legendary
27:33pink and black
27:34of the Hitman
27:35takes on Jerry
27:36Lawler's
27:37demented dentist
27:38Isaac Yankum
27:39DDS.
27:40Now, another
27:41match at Summer
27:42Slam this year
27:43is the women's
27:44championship.
27:45Alundra Blaze
27:46defends the title
27:47against her
27:48long-time nemesis
27:49Bertha Faye.
27:50Now, Alundra
27:51has been waiting
27:52a long time to
27:53pay Bertha back
27:54from this attack
27:55from behind.
27:56And at Summer
27:57Slam, she'll
27:58get that shot
27:59thanks to
28:00interim WWF
28:01president,
28:02Hall of Famer
28:03Gorilla Monsoon,
28:04who put this one
28:05on the card

28:12Million Dollar
28:13Corporation member
28:14Kama.
28:15The supreme
28:16fighting machine
28:17better hope his
28:18conscience is clear
28:19as he certainly
28:20comes face-to-face
28:21with his own
28:22mortality.
28:23Plus, there is more
28:24news from the

28:34of the Body
28:35Donuts.
28:36Check this out.
28:37Over the weekend
28:38Skip challenged
28:39Barry to a ten
28:40minute time limit
28:41match.
28:42Barry accepted and
28:43lasted the ten
28:44minutes, which means
28:45he defeated Skip for
28:46the second time.
28:47Now, they will meet
28:48at Summer Slam.
28:49Can you believe it?
28:50Barry Horowitz in a
28:51WWF pay-per-view
28:52event.
28:53Man.
28:54Plus, we will see
28:55the high-flying
28:56one-two-three kid
28:57square off against
28:58the modern-day
28:59kamikaze
29:00Takushi.
29:01There is no
29:02doubt interim
29:03WWF president
29:04Gorilla Monsoon is
29:05throwing politics as
29:06usual out the
29:07window.
29:08He's running that
29:09office the way we
29:10would.
29:11The fans do not
29:12miss the greatest
29:13Summer Slam ever.
29:14Sunday night,
29:15August 27th at
29:167 o'clock Eastern
29:17for Pacific.
29:18Totally live from
29:19the Igloo in
29:20Pittsburgh on
29:21pay-per-view.
29:22Alright, let's get
29:23you back to ringside
29:24now with Vince and
29:25Doc Hendricks.
29:26Doc, how does it
29:27feel to be on the
29:28hottest cable show
29:29of the 90s?
29:30What about it,
29:31Doc?
29:32That's the 90s,
29:33Doc, not the 80s.
29:34I think he heard
29:35as well.
29:36He's like, okay,
29:37a thousand
29:38comedians out of
29:39work and Pet Gale
29:40tries to audition
29:41his stand-up routine.
29:42I tell you, no
29:43respect here.
29:44Talk about a man
29:45who got no respect
29:46but certainly turned
29:47things around here
29:48tonight.
29:49The disparaging
29:50remarks of Ted
29:51DiBiase did not
29:52fall on deaf ears.
29:53Henry Godwin
29:54swapped the
29:55million-dollar
29:56man and he's
29:57ready to lock up
29:58with his opponent
29:59when we return
30:00with more
30:01Monday Night Raw.
30:03World Wrestling
30:04Federation
30:05programming.
30:06Kicking off the
30:07new fall season,
30:08ladies and
30:09gentlemen,
30:10check your
30:11local listings.
30:12Yes, we're
30:13going to begin
30:14with WrestleMania
30:15The Special.
30:16This is live
30:17and this is
30:18Monday Night
30:19Raw.
30:20You don't think
30:21he's got any
30:22more shots in
30:23that bucket,
30:24do you?
30:25I don't think
30:26he has,
30:27quite a bit.
30:28Well, it
30:29would look good
30:30on my white suit.
30:31It would look
30:32so nice.
30:33Come on!
30:34Woo!
30:35D-B-I-C-E!
30:36Ross Greenberg.
30:37Shawn Michaels is
30:38warming up.
30:39He's ready for
30:40action against Jerry
30:41the King.
30:42And we're set for
30:43action here
30:44momentarily.
30:45We're back and
30:46this match has
30:47already begun.
30:48Greenberg apparently
30:49trying to take a page
30:50out of the Ted
30:51DiBiase book,
30:52attacking Henry
30:53Godwin from behind
30:54with no avail.
30:55Henry messing
30:56with that roundhouse
30:57hook.
30:58Caught Greenberg
30:59in midair.
31:00Henry,
31:01hawk bomber
31:02on cover here.
31:03And not much
31:04of one.
31:05But you've got to
31:06imagine now,
31:07this unprovoked
31:08attack that he did
31:09to DiBiase.
31:10Unprovoked attack?
31:11You heard what Ted
31:12DiBiase had to say,
31:13did you not?
31:14Well, yeah,
31:15but you know,
31:16he didn't have to
31:17go all the way there.
31:18I'm saying,
31:19they're not going
31:20to forget about this.
31:21I mean,
31:22come on.
31:23I like Hank
31:24Godwin,
31:25but he ain't
31:26the quickest
31:27bunny in the
31:28forest.
31:30He delighted you.
31:31But wait a minute,
31:32here he goes.
31:33A slop drop.
31:34And that should-
31:35Wait a minute,
31:36was he?
31:37I guess so,
31:38yes sir.
31:39Three count.
31:40He's still a marked man.
31:41I don't care what you say.
31:42The Million Dollar
31:43Corporation will be
31:44after him.
31:45Oh, you can bet.
31:46We have not heard
31:47the last of Ted DiBiase.
31:48Not on that issue.
31:49Okay, easy now.
31:50Easy now.
31:51Don't say nothing.
31:52He's getting that slop.
31:53Be quiet.
31:54Over here, Hank.
31:55Hey, hey, hey, hey.
31:56Hey, hey,
31:57hey.
31:58Oh, Hank.
31:59Let's take you from
32:00the hog farm,
32:01ladies and gentlemen.
32:02Standing by,
32:03we're gonna take you to a-
32:04What you gonna do?
32:05Oh, no, no.
32:06Yes.
32:07Unbelievable.
32:08Well,
32:09anything can happen
32:10here in the
32:11World Wrestling
32:12Federation.
32:13It does.
32:14Come on.
32:15Oh,
32:16unbelievable.
32:17Let's take you
32:18from the hog farm,
32:19ladies and gentlemen,
32:20to the dentist office.
32:21We're talking,
32:22of course,
32:23about the
32:24Isaac Yankum
32:25DDS.
32:27He's been neglecting
32:28our dental hygiene
32:29heavily.
32:30Good stuff.
32:31She can't take it.
32:32Ow.
32:33Ow, it hurts.
32:34It hurts.
32:35Oh,
32:36then you need
32:37some more of this.
32:38Just like the hit man's
32:39gonna be screaming
32:40at some place.
32:41He's gonna be
32:42screaming it hurts.
32:43But don't
32:44do this.
32:45I don't care.
32:46I don't care.
32:47I don't care.
32:48I don't care.
32:49I don't care.
32:50I don't care.
32:51I don't care.
32:52I don't care.
32:53I don't care.
32:54I don't care.
32:55But don't give him any novocaine, nothing to deaden the pain for the Hitman.
33:00We want him to suffer.
33:01We want it to hurt real bad.
33:03Bret Hart, get ready, SummerSlam.
33:07Isaac Yankov, DDS, he's gonna drill his way to the top of
33:11the World Wrestling Federation, starting with you, Hitman.
33:17Get it.
33:19I don't think anyone would want to be Bret the Hitman Hart.
33:25Not at SummerSlam, not the face, but at Monster Dentist.
33:30Sit down, Mitch, you don't have to stand up for Lawler.
33:32Here he comes, ladies and gentlemen.
33:35Jerry, the King Lawler, one of the shrewdest individuals in the history
33:40of the World Wrestling Federation.
33:44What kind of tricks does Lawler have up his sleeve here tonight?
33:47I'll tell you this much, in the back, I didn't see him and Psycho Sid talking.
33:52I can't tell you, just one time, that's it.
33:55Standing right now, ladies and gentlemen, Barry Dudinsky,
33:59I believe, back with a number of WWF superstars.
34:01Barry, are you there?
34:02Yeah, Vince, I am.
34:04I'm back here in the locker room, and I'm with the 1, 2, 3 Kid and Savio Vega.
34:08Guys, come on, I need the Mad Caps back, I need to go to ringside.
34:11Come on, I need them.
34:12All right, Vince, we'll just have to talk about something a little different.
34:16Take a look at this.
34:17It's an uncut sheet of Mad Caps.
34:20You know, the only thing that's probably hotter than the Mad Caps themselves
34:23is an uncut sheet of Mad Caps.
34:25Now, this Mad Cap uncut sheet has 66 Mad Caps on it.
34:29Also included is this 18-karat gold-plated slammer and the neoprene board.
34:35Now, Vince, you always say to me, what else do we have?
34:37Well, here it is, take a look at it.
34:39It's WWF Magazine.
34:41A free three-month subscription comes along with the uncut sheet of Mad Caps
34:46by dialing 1-800-TITAN-91 for only $19.
34:50And by the way, guess what?
34:51If you have a subscription already, we'll just tack three months on for you.
34:55Back to you guys at ringside.
34:57All right, thank you very much, Barry Judensky.
35:00It looks like that a number of individuals
35:02don't care whether or not Jerry The King Lawler commands much attention.
35:06When you get back, the house is good in shape.
35:10When Shawn Michaels comes to the ring, he's on his way, ladies and gentlemen.
35:13All right!
35:17Tonight, Monday Night Raw is brought to you by new, bigger
35:21Strydex medicated pads and simple, pimple control.
35:26Doc?
35:28Doc?
35:31What's the camera doing on me?
35:33Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!
35:36All right, in any event, Jerry The King Lawler.
35:38Oh, my goodness, here we go!
35:40The king.
35:42Here we go, ladies and gentlemen, yes!
35:44I've got the looks.
35:46A man who's going to electrify this capacity crowd.
35:50Yeah, come on, Michael.
35:53A sincere, up and down, big smile, just a sexy boy.
35:59Shawn Michaels ready for action against Jerry The King Lawler.
36:03Whoa, they're going to classic.
36:05The humiliation, Shawn Michaels!
36:08Michaels on his way to the trash land.
36:11On his way to lock up the bad guy.
36:14Please, Ramon, in the ladder mat.
36:21Oh, no!
36:22They're going to electrify the crowd or what?
36:33Shawn Michaels has his capacity crowd rocking in Worcester, Massachusetts.
36:39They're rocking all over the world.
36:41Work it, baby, work it.
36:44Taught him everything he knows.
36:45He makes me proud.
36:46Chip off the old block.
36:47Yes!
36:51Don't forget, Psycho Sid's back here.
36:54Yes, indeed.
36:55Everyone will be watching this matchup.
36:57Because that Razor Ramon will be watching.
37:00And as we said before, Sid is beside himself.
37:04Psycho Sid, who was pulled out of the match after it was announced.
37:09Shawn Michaels at SummerSlam by the interim WWF president, Gorilla Monsoon.
37:14Monsoon made the match everybody wanted to see.
37:17Yes, the ladder match.
37:19Everybody rumors WrestleMania 10, Madison Square Garden.
37:22And that match, the ladder match, unquestionably,
37:25going down in the annals of WWF history as one of the all-time great matches.
37:31And I would suspect the return match of the same kind at SummerSlam
37:34will be the same in terms of extraordinary-
37:37It's going to be worse.
37:38Well, I don't know about that.
37:39Jerry The King Lawler.
37:40Now, let's see what Lawler's going to do against Shawn Michaels.
37:44Non-title matchup here.
37:46Going downstairs.
37:47Didn't expect a clean break.
37:49Coming off the ropes.
37:50From the near side.
37:51Oh, nice.
37:52He's safe.
37:53He's over by Michaels.
37:54And right back in.
37:57You never can tell what Shawn Michaels is going to do.
38:00Where's he going?
38:03Hey, wait a minute.
38:04Whoa!
38:05A little round of high fives.
38:08And Michaels right back in.
38:11We spoke earlier on of this man's resilience.
38:13Just remember, it was last week when Mabel rammed him into the ring post.
38:17I mean, Michaels can take an extraordinary sum of punishment
38:21and keep coming right back on you.
38:23Take a lick and keep on taking.
38:24But this is a great psychological ploy
38:26because I've seen him holding the ribs back,
38:28back in the back before I came out here.
38:30See, I'm very observant.
38:31I watch everything.
38:32I'm sure you are.
38:33Keep this in mind.
38:34This is not a title match.
38:36Lawler doesn't care if he wins.
38:38He's got an ulterior motive.
38:40He might.
38:41We'll find out.
38:43Look at that.
38:44Throwing in the brakes.
38:45It's Michaels.
38:46Oh, yeah.
38:50And Shawn Michaels.
38:51Mr. Flamboyant.
38:55There are two individuals who can get away with those kind of actions.
38:58Somebody like Big Daddy Cool Diesel,
39:00who's a monster seven-footer and 300 pounds.
39:03Yes, he is.
39:04Or somebody like a Shawn Michaels,
39:06who doesn't care about the consequences.
39:08Or somebody like King Mabel at 568 pounds.
39:11All right.
39:13Uh-oh.
39:15You hear the chant?
39:17The official asking Michaels to knock it off.
39:22Sure he is.
39:23You know what I hear is the grain of sand
39:25dropping through the hourglass.
39:27It's just a matter of time before Psycho Sid appears.
39:30Here's a whopper for you.
39:31Right now, look at this.
39:32Right now, look at this.
39:33Michaels setting up Jerry Lawler now.
39:35Coming to the ropes, coming to the ropes.
39:36Come on in.
39:42Shawn Michaels.
39:43The thing's going to happen.
39:44Off the ropes.
39:45And wait a minute, wait a minute.
39:47Look at this.
39:48Uh-oh.
39:49Coming.
39:50I told you.
39:51No.
39:52I told you.
39:53Wait a minute.
39:54Psycho Sid is coming out of ringside.
39:57Uh-oh.
39:58And that, if nothing else, will be a distraction.
40:01Oh, no.
40:04Michaels whipped to the buckle.
40:06He's being distracted by the presence of Sid.
40:09And Sid is holding in his hands the Intercontinental title.
40:13Look at that.
40:14I told you.
40:15I wouldn't listen.
40:19And Sid peering down now on Michaels.
40:25We said before, Michaels resilient, but oh, my.
40:29We're back, ladies and gentlemen.
40:30Yes, we're back live in Worcester, Massachusetts.
40:33And Shawn Michaels has been taking a drubbing for sure.
40:37And as Michaels taking a drubbing on the inside of the ring,
40:43he continues to be distracted by that man there, Psycho Sid,
40:48who is carrying with him.
40:49Oh, my goodness.
40:50Look at that.
40:51Wow.
40:52What a suplex.
40:53And I'm telling you, they haven't played the trump card yet.
40:55The what?
40:56The trump card.
40:57The trump card.
40:58They haven't played it yet.
40:59I can't reveal what it is.
41:00But just imagine.
41:02What if Razor Ramon came out here and took advantage of this?
41:04And a hard right hand by Jerry The King Lawler.
41:06And he'll call the bad guy for nothing.
41:08This could be the turning point, as Lawler said,
41:11in Shawn Michaels' career.
41:14It's Jerry The King Lawler on the inside.
41:17And on the outside, it's this Psycho Sid,
41:20who still has in his possession the Intercontinental Championship belt,
41:25a belt I believe that he thinks he would have won
41:27had the match with Shawn Michaels taken place at SummerSlam.
41:31Well, you can't say that he wouldn't have.
41:33He didn't get the opportunity.
41:34Wait a minute.
41:35Look at this.
41:36This could be it.
41:37Has Michaels had enough?
41:38DDT.
41:39That could do it.
41:40Wrong title matchup here.
41:43But it's about the title that Sid is holding in his hands.
41:46Hello, Vinny Mac.
41:48They don't want to beat Shawn Michaels 1, 2, 3 right here.
41:51What do you mean?
41:52I mean, well, hello, McFly.
41:551, 2, and the cannon's off.
41:57No.
41:58Of course they would.
41:59They want to hurt him.
42:01Jerry The King Lawler would love to have a victory over Shawn Michaels.
42:04Make no mistake about that.
42:07Lawler now with Michaels back on his feet.
42:09Maybe not for long.
42:10A scoop.
42:11And a slam.
42:13And maybe Michaels has bitten off a bit more than he can chew.
42:16Maybe he's not healed from last week
42:18when Mabel ran this back to the ring post.
42:21Lawler from the top.
42:22Nobody there.
42:29Jerry The King Lawler.
42:31Uh-oh, the kip-up.
42:34A right hand block.
42:35Michaels, look at this.
42:37Michaels peppering away at the foot of the jaw.
42:40Setting up Jerry The King Lawler for the ride.
42:42To the buckle.
42:43Oh, yeah.
42:46And Michaels somehow has himself back up on top.
42:50Michaels with a boot.
42:52Shawn Michaels with momentum.
42:54Michaels now the reigning Intercontinental Champion.
42:56And a body slam.
42:57Michaels trying to go to SummerSlam with some momentum.
43:00It's happened.
43:01The title against Les Ramon.
43:03Look at this.
43:04On the top rope.
43:05Nobody does this like Michaels.
43:06Yeah.
43:10Uh-oh, sweets and music.
43:13And here we go.
43:15Yes.
43:16Cranking it up.
43:17Michaels is going to lay off Jerry Lawler.
43:20And a boot.
43:21Yeah.
43:22Uh-oh, here it comes.
43:23Wait a minute.
43:24Wait a minute.
43:25Look out.
43:26Sid in there.
43:27Sid interfering in the match.
43:30Oh, no.
43:34Uh-oh.
43:35You don't think of power bomb him, do you?
43:39Sid hammering away on Michaels.
43:44Screaming at him now.
43:45Sets him up.
43:46Boot to the ribs.
43:48An anomaly.
43:50This man has no business being in there at all.
43:53Oh, no.
43:55Michaels was in trouble last week.
43:57He's in more trouble this week.
44:00Psycho Sid.
44:02A reason for this qualification.
44:06And Sid, wait a minute.
44:07Powerbomb.
44:09Here comes the powerbomb.
44:12What's he doing here?
44:14He should have let it happen.
44:16No.
44:17No.
44:18Razor, you're blowing your opportunity, baby.
44:20Razor him on.
44:22Making certain that Sid didn't do any damage to Michaels.
44:26I think Razor wants Michaels.
44:28Oh, my goodness.
44:29Is he doing right?
44:30Yes.
44:31There we go.
44:32Lawler back in, pulling Sid down.
44:35It's hard to keep up with it.
44:38And Jerry, the King Lawler,
44:41escorting Sid back to the locker room.
44:44Razor him on.
44:45Coming into the ring.
44:46Just in the nick of time,
44:48Michaels was gonna be powerbombed for sure.
44:50What was he thinking?
44:52If he'd have powerbombed him,
44:53just imagine what shape Shaw would be in
44:55when he got to SummerSlam.
44:56Uh-oh, watch it.
44:57Oh.
44:59And that belt is what it's all about.
45:01These two men will actually face each other at SummerSlam.
45:04And wait a minute.
45:07Hey, wait a minute.
45:09Hey, wait a minute.
45:13Is he gonna go to Razor?
45:15Looks good there.
45:18It's gonna be the louder match.
45:22Wait a minute.
45:23Michaels wants it back.
45:26Oh, no.
45:27We're back at Razor him on,
45:29and Michaels has lost their temper.
45:31Get out of the way, Diesel.
45:32Let him go.
45:33Let him go, baby.
45:34CWF Champion Diesel coming in.
45:36He's friends with Buford.
45:37Trying to calm the tempers down.
45:39The tempers have flared here between Michaels and Razor.
45:42Stay with him.
45:43Head up, head up.
45:45We're back, and ladies and gentlemen,
45:47take you back to some of the action we missed earlier on.
45:49Yes, Razor him on, and Shawn Michaels having had it.
45:53I mean, these two individuals can't wait for SummerSlam.
45:57What a matchup's gonna be.
45:58It's a pretty good match.
45:59Undertaker versus Tataka here next week.
